Abstract(in English) In online conferences, it is more difficult to capture detailed facial expression changes than in offline conferences. In addition, it is difficult to convey the intentions of the participants. In this study, we investigate effective features f or estimating agreement and disagreement using facial images. We confirm whether grouping people with similar facial expression changes is effective in estimating agreement or disagreement by grouping people with similar facial expression changes and comparing the resul ts with those without grouping. As a result of feature selection based on feature importance using XGBoost, the estimation accuracy was improved by making individual binary classifiers for groups prone to changes around the eyes and groups prone to changes around the mouth, rather than making a binary classifier using all the data without grouping.
